One thing that i wonder about is that if it is possible to add an status of "seen it" and have that act the same as downloaded on the "progress bars"
I don't keep all episodes of all series just some but would still like to know that i have seen it if you understand, maby this is to messy?

// Ontrose
That's something that's been requested before, and I don't have any plans to implement it soon but it's something that might happen eventually.

EDIT:

sentra99: can you try a new build and see if you still are having problems with it crashing while trying to add shows?

Hey Midgetspy-- one thing i did notice is that once the date for the show to air has appeared it seems to search for it.  Is it possible to set that to start searching on date at say, 9pm EST or later--I mean, it's a rare occasion that a show pre-airs before it's scheduled date/time. 

This would probably help cut down unnecessary load on the search sites' APIs.  Maybe my sickbeard install is just going rogue and searching for stuff before it should, if this is already implemented.

Is there a way to install Sick Beard on Synology (NAS) system? I have sabnzbd+ currently installed on my NAS, it'd be great for Sick Beard to also run on the NAS.

Just like Hyperal, I'm also getting an error as it attempts to post-process.

From the log:
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "sabToSickbeard.py", line 30, in
 File "autoProcessTV.pyc", line 58, in processEpisode
 File "ConfigParser.pyc", line 540, in get
ConfigParser.NoOptionError: No option 'web_root' in section: 'SickBeard'
It doesn't seem to be renaming or moving the files either.

Any ideas?

On an unrelated note, and I'm not sure if it has been mentioned previously, but when I quit the Sick Beard process, and restart it again, the Show List is empty and I have the start again :/

I realize that this might be a trivial question: My shows goes to my overarching Downloads folder, ie not to downloads/tv even tho I put "TV" in the field in Episode Download Options. Asking how I fix this small issue.

Am I missing something here? - why on earth would it do that?
I think this is because you are post-processing files that SAB has already post-processed. They're inside your show folder, and you post process them, and SB deletes the folder after post-processing it. I fixed this before but I must have broken it again with the recent post processing changes. To quote the post-processing wiki page:
You cannot post process an episode that is already inside its show dir. You must disable SAB sorting to use Sick Beard post processing, all episodes should be being post-processed from a temporary download folder.

Assuming that you're having the same problem that I was, you need to make sure that your final show/episode directories are NOT subdirectories of the Download Dir. The Download Directory is basically just a temporary location from which SB moves the files to their final destination directories. The Auto Post Processing function scans the Download Directory (and all sub dirs) for recognizable files and then tries to process them and move them to the appropriate final show/episode directories. If your Show/Episode directories are subdirectories of the Download Directory itself, in the best case, SB will just end up copying the files right back over the top of themselves (tho I suspect it probably just ends up erroring out and leaving the files alone). 10 minutes later, it'll try to do it all over again.

In a nutshell, the Download Directory should be *completely* separate from your TV Show directories. Think of it as a temporary directory used for processing downloaded files before they're moved to the final show/episode directories.

At least... that's my take on it! :D
Basically, yes. How can you ask Sick Beard to automatically scan & post-process a folder that contains all of your existing episodes? It's going to think they're all new episodes. Granted it could be smart about it, but for now it expects you guys to be smart about it instead ;-P

It still seems like everything is working fine but I get a error notification after every download and that is what shows in the log.

Also, I've been having trouble with NZBMatrix lately, anyone else?  Since Newzbin is essentially closed for now and everyone is secretive as hell about TVBinz and I can't get in, I've been relying on Matrix but SB is missing a few shows that are easily found by a manual search.
This should have been fixed this morning, make sure you have the latest source. Also why don't you use NZBs.org, it's better than NZBMatrix in every way. The reason for the wonky SB search results is that the NZBMatrix API has been buggy as hell lately.

I'm not sure what your question is... what exactly is Sick Beard doing wrong? The "TV Download Dir" should be an absolute path or it's going to be relative to your Sick Beard dir (use the folder browser!).

Man this thread is starting to move way too fast, I need to set up my own forum, heh.

I just tried performing a manual post-process and it worked. So I must be doing something wrong somewhere between Sick Beard and SAB?

The manual post process doesn't use sabToSickbeard.py. The problem is already fixed in the latest rev as far as I know.

I'm using build 442. Are you saying that the automatic post-process is broken at the moment? Or should it be fine and I'm doing something wrong?

I'm using 442.  Updated this morning, I hadn't set up post-processing previous to trying it today.  ALso, I set NZB.org to primary provider.  I actually got into TVbinz IRC today but no acct.  So, until something else comes up, I guess I'll stick with NZBs.org.

Ah you guys are right, post processing from sab was still broken. It should be fixed in the latest source now.
